**Acid Formulas

Names and formulas of common acids, naming rules.

Acid Names and FormulasAcid Names and Formulas
sulfuric acid*** H2 SO4
sulfurous acid** H2 SO3
phosphoric acid*** H3 PO4
phosphorous acid** H3 PO3
carbonic acid*** H2 CO3
hydrogen carbonate** H CO3 (-1). This is an acid because it can lose that H to become CO3 (-2).
hydrochloric acid*** HCl(aq)
hydrobromic acid** HBr(aq)
hydroiodic acid** HI(aq)
hydrofluoric acid** HF(aq)
nitric acid*** H NO3
nitrous acid** H NO2
acetic acid** CH3COOH (the acidic H is on the right)
periodic acid H IO4
iodic acid* H IO3
iodous acid* H IO2
hypoiodous acid H IO
perbromic acid H BrO4
bromic acid* H BrO3
bromous acid* H BrO2
hypobromous acid H BrO
chromic acid* H2 CrO4
chromous acid* H CrO2
H2 SO4 sulfuric acid***
H2 SO3 sulfurous acid**
H3 PO4 phosphoric acid***
H3 PO3 phosphorus acid**
H2 CO3 carbonic acid***
H CO3 (-1) hydrogen carbonate**
HCl(aq) hydrochloric acid***
HBr(aq) hydrobromic acid**
HI(aq) hydroiodic acid**
HF(aq) hydrofluoric acid**
H NO3 nitric acid***
H NO2 nitrous acid**
CH3COOH acetic acid**
H IO4 periodic acid

H IO3 iodic acid*
H IO2 iodous acid*
H IO hypoiodous acid
H BrO4 perbromic acid
H BrO3 bromic acid*
H BrO2 bromous acid*
H BrO hypobromous acid
H2 CrO4 chromic acid*
H CrO2 chromous acid*
What are the five hydro___ic acids? What's the oddball one? HI, HF, HCl, HBr (all aqueous). Hydrocyanic acid (HCN) has a polyatomic anion, cyanide (CN-). The first four are more important.
H ClO4 perchloric acid**
H ClO3 chloric acid**
H ClO2 chlorous acid**
H ClO hypochlorous acid**
If an anion is hypo___ite, its corresponding acid is hypo___ous acid
If an anion is ___ate, its corresponding acid is ___ic acid
If an anion is ___ide, it's corresponding acid is hydro___ic acid
If an anion is per___ate, its corresponding acid is per___ic acid
If an anion is ___ite, its corresponding acid is ___ous acid
What is the anion in a hypo___ous acid? hypo___ite
What is the anion in hydro___ic acid? ___ide
What is the anion in ___ic acid? ___ate
What is the anion in per___ic acid? per___ate
What is sulfuric acid's anion? sulfate, SO4 (-2)
When carbonic acid loses an H, what's the resulting anion? hydrogen carbonate, HCO3(-1)
When carbonic acid loses 2 H's, what's the resulting anion? carbonate, CO3 (-2)
When phosphoric acid loses all its H's, what's the resulting anion? phosphate, PO4 (-3)
When nitric acid loses its hydrogen, what's the resulting anion? nitrate, NO3 (-1)
When acetic acid loses it's acidic H, what's the resulting anion? acetate, CH3COO-

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
